Commercial & Passenger Tyres procurement guide
Tyres are supplied by size, pattern and load rating against vehicle type and the surfaces operated on, in fleet quantities where required. Vehicle sourcing should start with route, load, body or passenger duty and operating conditions before a make or model is selected.
Vehicle duty and body configuration
Applications include Fleet tyre replacement, Construction and mining vehicles, Agricultural equipment and Retail and wholesale supply. State payload or passenger requirement, terrain, distance, duty cycle, road conditions and body/equipment interfaces that affect the vehicle configuration.
Powertrain, payload and acceptance
Compare source options against Tyre sizes and quantities required, Load and speed ratings, Tread pattern and application, Tube or tubeless requirement and Delivery schedule. The quotation should identify the actual make/model, powertrain, axle or drive configuration, body scope, included safety equipment and documents needed for registration or buyer acceptance.
Shipping, parts and fleet support
Plan shipping method, dimensions and weight, destination import/registration documents, pre-delivery inspection, body or accessory completion, operator handover, service capability, initial filters/consumables and critical spare parts.
Information to include in your quotation request
Provide application, payload/passenger or body requirement, Tyre sizes and quantities required, Load and speed ratings, Tread pattern and application, Tube or tubeless requirement and Delivery schedule, quantity, operating country and conditions, destination, preferred delivery basis, spare-parts package and after-sales expectations.
